Hull Remembers
NOT many places in Britain still have prominent war memorials commemorating the country's battles against the Boers of South Africa.
The plaque bears the words: Erected by public subscription to the memory of the men of Hull who lost their lives during the South African War 1899, 1900, 1901 & 1902.

Not only excellent games and analysis but publicity in respect of the culture in the places that you visit. Thank you.
